Surprising number of plastic straws are used every day! Stainless Steel Alternative

Hi,

I hope today finds you well and happy.  

Through research, I found that 500 million straws are used per day in the USA.  This came as quite a shock to me.  That is a bunch!

Most of them get disposed of after one usage.  They can take up to 200 years  to decompose.  

Plastic straws are in the top ten debris found in our oceans.  I watched a YouTube video where a turtle had somehow gotten a straw stuck in it's nose.  It cried, as the rescuers pulled it out.

I love the ocean.  It makes me sad that people throw trash into something so beautiful and beneficial to our world.

These stainless steel straws will save you $$ and help protect the environment.

These come in a box with a cleaning brush and a cute little "Thank You" card.

These sell on Amazon for less than $6.  And, they have a life time guarantee.  Ya' just can't beat that!

One should avoid using plastic straws for strong citrus drinks, as the acid from the citrus can pull harmful toxins out of the plastic, and then we drink them.   :/

Stainless Steel Straws may be purchased on Amazon.

Wishing Much Love and Happiness to You All!

My Son-in-Law is the reason, I...

Helllloooo everyone!  

I am happy to be here today and hope that you will enjoy our review today.

I am blessed to have two intelligent, kind and loving children.  They each married intelligent, kind and loving mates.  Therefore, I have several people I can call upon should I need advise on what or how to do something.  Yeah, Me!!

My Son-in-Law is one of the smartest men I know.  It boggles my mind all the tasks he is capable of; from car engine repair to carpentry to computer programing/repair to cooking and baking!  I know; Right?   

So, when he started switching out kitchen utensils from whatever to stainless steel; I took notice.  

Today we are reviewing a stainless steel colander from Kukpo.

I like everything about this colander.  It has comfortable handles, the base on it gives stability, and the wide diameter makes for an easier target to hit when one is draining pasta.  

This can hold 5 quarts, so it is also nice for washing fruits and veggies.  

It is bright and shiny and looks attractive.  Bye-bye plastic stainer!

It is also dishwasher safe;  BONUS!!  :)

I have quite a ways to go to get my kitchen switched over to stainless steel, but ya gotta start somewhere!

Colander may be purchased on Amazon.

Wishing Much Love and Happiness to you All!!
